Most American students are bored and uninspired; our teachers are
overwhelmed and losing hope; our schools have fallen behind the
rest of the world in the subjects of science, math, and reading.
And Lee Ognibene has the cure.
An award-winning educator for more than thirty years, Ognibene
explains how and why American schools are failing, challenges
traditional teaching methods, and delivers a cooperative learning
model that reflects today's media- and tech-savvy students and
makes teaching and learning active, fun, and rewarding.
Brimming with personal anecdotes, seasoned advice, and plenty of
practical tools and exercises, this refreshingly innovative
teacher's guide offers new ways to handle praise, keep up with
technology, facilitate school-industry partnerships, measure
genuine learning, challenge each and every student, make curriculum
relevant and engaging, appreciate and accommodate gender
differences, expect (and inspire) excellence, and much more.
Ognibene even proposes groundbreaking ideas such as school laptops
for every child and distance learning where high school students do
not have to attend classes on campus every day
A must-read for every teacher and administrator-and parents,
too-"The Cure for the Common School" paves the path for
enthusiastic teachers to cultivate the genius in every student and
create model schools that will once again make the American
educational system the envy of the world.
